A
recognized leader in child care, the New
Canaan YMCA offers family-focused
recreational and social programs that meet
your family’s needs not only during work
hours when you can’t all be together, but
also when you can!
We
have two things in common with you: We
work hard, and we believe nothing is more
important than your kids. The YMCA’s
philosophy on child care is that simple.
YMCA
Childcare is an asset-rich environment,
where we truly believe the philosophy that
“All Kids Are Our Kids.” We
appreciate that each child is an individual
and strive to create an environment that
stimulates and nurtures all children.
Our qualified, seasoned staff embraces all
children and their families, so that
all feel comfortable with the consistent,
lving care provided.
In
short, nothing compares to the quality of
YMCA child care. The New Canaan YMCA offers
quality, state-licensed
child care for children ages 6 weeks through
grade 6, all in our renovated (delete
this word) South Avenue facility. Kids
Unlimited is also accredited by the National
Association for the Education of the Young
Child (NAEYC).
The
New Canaan YMCA offers reliable after-school
programming for children in kindergarten
through grade six from school dismissal to
6:00pm daily. Participants may
register for 3, 4, or 5 days per week.
The
program operates at the YMCA’s South
Avenue facility and follows the New Canaan
public school calendar.
Bus
transportation from the New Canaan public
and St. Aloysius schools is provided.
Extended days are available when New Canaan
schools have early dismissals, and vacation
programs are available at reduced rates
during most public school holidays.
Our
energetic, qualified staff provide
experiences that promote self-esteem,
independence, and responsibility.
Activities include organized gym activities
and outdoor play, sports and games,
swimming, arts and crafts, stories, music,
special events, local trips, and homework
assistance. We maintain a
staff-to-child ratio of at least ten to one.
